How about rolling your own?

More work, but infinitely flexible.

Use an inner pipe for the pole and a larger outer pipe for the shelf
spacers/supports. The biggest challenge would be securing your shelves to
the pipe supports. I suppose you could even use a square post and bore a
hole down the center for your shelf supports. These would be easier to mount
to your shelves, but might bind/wobble with wear.

Hi.

We have a pantry in our kitches that's basically a closet. Way too deep
for
the small items we keep in it. I'd like to put a lazy susan in it so that
we
can get to the stuff at the back. But it'll need to be quite large. I'd
like
it to be floor to top of door (over 6 feet) tall and about 32 inches wide.
I'd also like at least 6 shelves.

So far I can't find any suitable lazy susan hardware. The most common
kind,
such as used in the corner of base cabinets isn't suitable since the
shelves
move together. The mass of what I've described above would be too much.

Closer is the 5-shelf pantry lazy susan from Rev-A-Shelf.

Unfortunately, even it isn't large enough (only 22 inches wide and 5
shelves).
I say it's closer partly because it seems to have a center pole mechanism
where the shelves rotate around the fixed pole. So the shelves only move
one
at a time.

In my mind's eye picture, I see the same sort of hardware as on the
Rev-A-Shelf
that fixes the shelf to a pole. But with shelves made of d-shaped cut
plywood
for extra strength to hold the soup cans and a thin lip attached around
the
edge of the shelves to hold things from falling off.

Anyone know where I might find hardware like this? I've looked at Lee
Valley
and several others.

Or would anyone have a better mind's eye picture to suggest?

Thanks!
Steve
